Published on Oct 24, 2012

In this video, the Pet-Proto, a predecessor to DARPA's Atlas robot, is confronted with obstacles similar to those robots might face in the DARPA Robotics Challenge (DRC). To maneuver over and around the obstacles, the robot exercises capabilities including autonomous decision-making, dismounted mobility and dexterity. The DARPA Robotics Challenge will test these and other capabilities in a series of tasks that will simulate conditions in a dangerous, degraded, human-engineered environment. Teams participating in Tracks B and C of the DRC will compete for access to a modified version of the Atlas robot for use in the 2013 and 2014 live disaster-response challenge events. For more information on the DRC, please see: http://go.usa.gov/VfA.

    Artificial intelligence has advanced to the point where it can emulate drunkenness.

    Imagine running away after shop lifting or something and having this thing bounding forward towards you, with its earth-shaking stomps.

    Ah yes. I knew that. But it's a shame that it doesn't have obstacle maneuvering decision making. That would be very impressive.

    in a way it is autonomous. It holds it's own balance autonomously. And balancing involves autonomous "decision making" hundreds of times per second. And i actually lied to you when i said "it doesn't have any sensors" I meant to say it doesn't have any visual sensors. It certainly has some sort of gyroscopes and accelerometers and pressure sensors for balancing. Sorry about that. Cheers
